that_o man_n be_v negligent_a and_o careless_a and_o that_o they_o rock_n themselves_o a_o sleep_n in_o vain_a flattery_n and_o deceit_n so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v not_o reproove_v by_o the_o law_n conscience_n the_o preach_v of_o the_o law_n most_o necessary_a special_o for_o these_o day_n wherein_o man_n be_v grow_v to_o lewdness_n of_o conscience_n behold_v then_o sin_n which_o be_v dead_a when_o the_o law_n be_v blot_v out_o or_o deface_v that_o be_v to_o say_v so_o long_o as_o man_n do_v not_o examine_v themselves_o by_o god_n law_n and_o according_a to_o that_o which_o he_o command_v

for_o this_o must_v stand_v true_a that_o so_o long_o as_o they_o be_v not_o careful_a and_o watchful_a their_o conscience_n be_v senseless_a &_o void_a of_o feeling_n and_o after_o this_o manner_n

think_v myself_o to_o be_v justify_v and_o to_o be_v accept_v before_o god_n and_o to_o have_v obtain_v everlasting_a life_n and_o why_o so_o iniquity_n we_o be_v not_o in_o the_o best_a state_n when_o we_o so_o think_v ourselves_o neither_o be_v we_o in_o the_o worst_a when_o god_n make_v we_o see_v our_o vileness_n and_o iniquity_n because_o he_o have_v cast_v the_o law_n very_o far_o away_o but_o when_o the_o law_n once_o have_v her_o course_n &_o i_o think_v well_o upon_o it_o i_o say_v alas_o be_o i_o not_o convict_v and_o vanquish_v do_v i_o not_o now_o know_v what_o manner_n of_o man_n i_o be_o can_v i_o now_o esteem_v myself_o innocent_a no_o very_o for_o so_o far_o off_o be_v it_o that_o i_o can_v do_v so_o that_o i_o find_v within_o myself_o a_o bottomless_a depth_n of_o sin_n so_o then_o when_o i_o know_v the_o law_n the_o law_n slay_v i_o and_o this_o be_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n now_o mean_v when_o he_o say_v that_o it_o be_v by_o the_o law_n that_o he_o be_v dead_a now_o to_o die_v to_o the_o law_n may_v be_v take_v after_o two_o sort_n as_o sometime_o it_o be_v take_v for_o judgement_n because_o that_o then_o we_o can_v perceive_v nothing_o but_o damnation_n and_o also_o we_o may_v take_v these_o word_n to_o die_v to_o the_o law_n in_o this_o sense_n as_o not_o to_o come_v nigh_o to_o it_o nor_o to_o have_v any_o thing_n to_o do_v therewith_o speak_v a_o good_a lesson_n for_o minister_n to_o teach_v they_o to_o have_v care_n both_o what_o they_o speak_v and_o how_o they_o speak_v for_o s._n paul_n abstein_v as_o much_o as_o be_v possible_a for_o he_o from_o make_v his_o doctrine_n odious_a &_o hateful_a among_o the_o jew_n if_o he_o have_v say_v i_o be_o dead_a it_o have_v not_o be_v right_o but_o when_o he_o say_v i_o be_o dead_a to_o the_o law_n that_o import_v that_o we_o be_v no_o more_o any_o thing_n at_o all_o and_o that_o we_o find_v not_o in_o it_o any_o matter_n of_o joy_n now_o he_o say_v that_o this_o be_v by_o the_o law_n and_o not_o by_o christ_n we_o see_v how_o he_o turn_v away_o this_o slander_n ho_o our_o iniquity_n be_v uncover_v it_o follow_v then_o that_o christ_n bring_v and_o manife_v sin_n many_o man_n say_v that_o this_o come_v from_o jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o from_o the_o law_n but_o we_o may_v see_v the_o contrary_a for_o if_o the_o law_n be_v dead_a it_o follow_v that_o we_o also_o die_v with_o it_o because_o we_o be_v condemn_v in_o god_n sight_n we_o see_v that_o all_o the_o promise_n that_o be_v contain_v therein_o can_v make_v we_o glad_a and_o rejoice_v we_o see_v that_o in_o stead_n of_o be_v accept_v of_o god_n we_o be_v accurse_v and_o altogether_o confound_v see_v then_o that_o so_o it_o be_v that_o the_o law_n condemn_v the_o law_n and_o not_o the_o gospel_n condemn_v when_o christ_n appear_v not_o killeth_z we_o and_o enforce_v we_o to_o die_v with_o it_o we_o will_v not_o nor_o we_o can_v impute_v that_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o god_n and_o to_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o we_o will_v rather_o impute_v it_o to_o that_o which_o the_o law_n say_v unto_o we_o we_o shall_v be_v justify_v and_o we_o shall_v obtain_v salvation_n when_o we_o shall_v have_v accomplish_v all_o that_o which_o it_o show_v we_o &_o teach_v us._n for_o look_v how_o much_o more_o high_a the_o law_n lift_v we_o up_o so_o much_o the_o more_o shall_v we_o fall_v into_o most_o deep_a pit_n and_o whirlpool_n wherefore_o we_o be_v far_o remove_v from_o this_o righteousness_n of_o faith_n by_o the_o law_n we_o die_v then_o to_o the_o law_n adjoin_v the_o promise_n of_o the_o law_n have_v a_o condition_n adjoin_v in_o as_o much_o as_o god_n adjoin_v this_o condition_n to_o all_o the_o promise_n thereof_o to_o wit_n that_o if_o we_o keep_v it_o and_o do_v according_a to_o that_o which_o he_o say_v unto_o we_o therein_o we_o shall_v be_v recompense_v now_o behold_v all_o we_o be_v dead_a and_o lose_v and_o why_o so_o for_o this_o be_v not_o sufficient_a that_o god_n speak_v but_o we_o must_v look_v to_o the_o condition_n as_o whether_o we_o be_v answerable_a to_o that_o which_o he_o command_v we_o and_o then_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o we_o go_v altogether_o a_o contrary_a course_n or_o backward_o as_o it_o be_v it_o follow_v then_o that_o when_o he_o shall_v have_v show_v we_o the_o way_n we_o shall_v behold_v ourselves_o accurse_v condemn_a and_o plunge_v in_o the_o bottomless_a pit_n of_o hell_n now_o we_o have_v the_o true_a sense_n and_o understanding_n of_o this_o place_n but_o he_o add_v afterwards_o the_o mean_a that_o be_v that_o he_o have_v be_v dead_a with_o christ_n but_o with_o all_o he_o immediate_o give_v unto_o we_o the_o doctrine_n that_o be_v to_o the_o end_n he_o may_v live_v to_o god_n he_o show_v then_o life_n this_o be_v a_o live_a death_n and_o a_o dead_a life_n that_o there_o be_v a_o live_a death_n as_o there_o be_v also_o a_o dead_a life_n the_o life_n that_o he_o call_v dead_a be_v that_o false_a presumption_n with_o which_o man_n deceive_v themselves_o when_o they_o imagine_v that_o they_o be_v just_a and_o righteous_a before_o god_n they_o live_v but_o it_o be_v in_o their_o own_o fantasy_n and_o that_o life_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o dead_a for_o because_o they_o seek_v not_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o they_o suffer_v themselves_o to_o go_v whole_o to_o destruction_n christ_n to_o know_v that_o god_n know_v our_o sin_n and_o to_o have_v a_o sensible_a feel_n of_o his_o judgement_n for_o they_o be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o come_v to_o

the_o apprehension_n of_o the_o grace_n of_o christ_n now_o there_o be_v also_o a_o quicken_a or_o a_o live_a death_n when_o we_o die_v be_v confound_v in_o ourselves_o because_o god_n know_v our_o iniquity_n &_o transgression_n and_o that_o we_o be_v scatter_v to_o be_v in_o that_o life_n as_o it_o be_v condemn_v creature_n and_o this_o be_v that_o that_o bring_v we_o to_o life_n and_o this_o be_v that_o also_o which_o i_o have_v say_v heretofore_o that_o we_o shall_v never_o seek_v after_o the_o grace_n and_o favour_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n till_o such_o time_n as_o we_o be_v wound_v with_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n and_o that_o so_o deep_o that_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o endure_v any_o long_o neither_o know_v on_o which_o side_n to_o turn_v us._n we_o have_v then_o yet_o now_o at_o the_o length_n the_o understanding_n of_o this_o place_n that_o be_v that_o saint_n paul_n declare_v doctrine_n three_o especial_a point_n of_o doctrine_n that_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n place_v we_o not_o in_o condemnation_n but_o that_o it_o be_v the_o law_n which_o do_v that_o and_o beside_o we_o learn_v that_o albeit_o we_o die_v to_o the_o law_n when_o we_o be_v dead_a with_o christ_n yet_o that_o notwithstanding_o we_o obtain_v a_o new_a life_n and_o moreover_o he_o declare_v that_o this_o new_a life_n of_o we_o be_v without_o ourselves_o and_o in_o that_o he_o fay_v in_o that_o that_o i_o now_o live_v i_o live_v not_o any_o more_o say_v he_o myself_o but_o jesus_n christ_n live_v in_o i_o he_o set_v out_o and_o declare_v this_o matter_n which_o we_o ought_v well_o to_o mark_v and_o hold_v fast_o for_o without_o this_o say_n we_o shall_v never_o pure_o and_o simple_o perceive_v what_o this_o mean_v to_o be_v justify_v by_o or_o through_o faith_n for_o diverse_a have_v deceive_v themselves_o when_o they_o have_v find_v these_o word_n that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o law_n error_n a_o double_a error_n for_o they_o mean_v when_o we_o be_v justify_v that_o our_o lord_n draw_v we_o out_o of_o the_o corruption_n in_o which_o we_o be_v and_o that_o he_o renew_v we_o by_o his_o spirit_n to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v serve_v he_o and_o also_o they_o declare_v that_o the_o good_a work_v which_o the_o christian_n do_v be_v no_o more_o from_o the_o law_n but_o from_o themselves_o and_o so_o that_o indeed_o which_o seem_v to_o have_v establish_v and_o strengthen_v saint_n paul_n doctrine_n do_v nothing_o else_o but_o corrupt_a pervert_v and_o mar_v the_o same_o for_o they_o make_v this_o distinction_n distinction_n a_o doltish_a distinction_n that_o there_o be_v certain_a work_v of_o the_o law_n which_o be_v the_o work_v that_o man_n do_v of_o their_o free_a will_n and_o of_o their_o own_o motion_n and_o accord_n as_o where_o they_o suppose_v to_o merit_v and_o deserve_v and_o they_o say_v that_o man_n be_v not_o justify_v by_o such_o work_v that_o be_v to_o say_v by_o moral_a work_v and_o duty_n as_o man_n call_v they_o but_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o will_v be_v justify_v by_o spiritual_a work_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o we_o know_v that_o god_n guide_v we_o by_o his_o spirit_n but_o if_o it_o be_v so_o all_o saint_n paul_n doctrine_n shall_v be_v overthrow_v let_v we_o then_o hold_v fast_o the_o word_n which_o be_v here_o to_o be_v expound_v that_o be_v that_o we_o

that_o the_o matter_n of_o our_o salvation_n be_v not_o in_o ourselves_o but_o in_o jesus_n christ_n and_o that_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o saint_n paul_n say_v that_o we_o live_v not_o any_o more_o in_o ourselves_o but_o in_o christ_n faithful_a a_o good_a difference_n between_o the_o hypocrite_n and_o the_o true_a faithful_a for_o he_o make_v here_o a_o indirect_a comparison_n between_o the_o
